Abstract
When a hydrological drought occurs due to a decrease in water storage, there is no choice but to supply limited water. Because this has a devastating impact on the community, it is necessary to identify causes and make predictions for emergency planning. The state of change in dam inflow can be used to confirm hydrological drought conditions using the Standardized Runoff Index (SRI), and meteorological drought and climate variability are used to identify causal relationships. Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) and Generalized Additive Model (GAM) models are developed to predict accumulated hydrological drought for 6, 12, and 24 months in the Boryeong Dam basin, and the Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency coefficient (NSE) exceeded 0.4, satisfying the suitability criteria. The estimation ability is highest when predicting a 12-month annual drought, and reliability can be further increased by reflecting some climate fluctuations in a non-linear form. The droughts of 6 month and 24 month cumulative scales are significantly influenced by the Western Hemisphere Warm Pool (WHWP) extending from the eastern North Pacific to the North Atlantic and by the Nino 3.4 region in the tropical Pacific. Furthermore, it is anticipated that the drought conditions of the inflow volume to the Boryeong Dam will worsen with increasing sea surface temperatures in both regions.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
